"... I understand, Nora. I will contact the major dealers in the market." Nora closed her eyes as soon as the call was cut.

Her fingers instinctively reached to dial Alric's number but she stopped and bit her lips harder. She was getting too dependent on him. Making it a habit of calling for the slightest need.

Staring at the number for a long time, she put her phone back reluctantly. But the moment she placed it back, the phone started to ring. Her eyes gleamed, noticing Alric's name. A smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

"Alric!" it was hard to hide the joy in her voice. Alric leaned on his chair and closed his eyes, revelling in her love.

"Mmm.. are the issues sorted out?" His drowsy voice made her heart ache.

She did not tell him about the issues even when he asked twice yet he had sorted all of them. A strange warmth engulfed her but it was full of worry.
